The report by advocacy group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), addressed to Secretary General Antonio Guterres, urged the UN to support the demand of Sikhs for holding a referendum in Punjab for “realisation of their right to self-determination”.

Members of Sikh rights groups and North American Gurudwara committees urged the United Nations to support the “Punjab Independence Referendum” for a separate Sikh homeland of Khalistan.
